I'm not sure what problem or issue you think this is addressing, but it is
not something we want to do. The driver communicates with the server
using UTF-8, so you should not be adjusting this and it is entirely
transparent to the user. What you do after retrieving data is your
business and you are welcome to save it or display it in any encoding you
desire, but the driver wants to communicate with the server using UTF-8.
